📢 Today we launch a new report developed in collaboration with the Welsh NHS Confederation and the Northern Ireland Confederation for Health and Social Care. The report examines diversity in boards across the healthcare system in Wales & NI. Twenty healthcare boards across Wales and Northern Ireland provided insights into some of the enablers, and barriers to creating diverse boardrooms. The research found that there is more to be done to ensure benefits of diverse boards are fully realised. It calls for: ✅ Diversity data within NHS boards to be accessible, transparent and publicly available. ✅ Healthcare leaders to proactively embed a strategic approach to diversity and inclusion within boards.
